Rescue - Safe Return

Under the Working at Height Regulations 2005, Companies must have a rescue plan in place for rescues that includes correct training, equipment and procedures rather than solely relying on the emergency services as a contingency plan. Taskmasters (UK) Limited covers all aspects of proactive planning for a rescue including consultation, documentation, and training of staff and supply of rescue and safety equipment.

Taskmasters have worked with many crane rescue systems in the past and which has resulted in us developing the Safe Return Rescue System.

It includes a compact bag containing equipment that can be easily stored near or underneath the crane cab drivers seat.

Training normally consists of covering a crane driver and two members of the ground crew, typically a Slingers/Signaller or Lift Supervisor or construction supervisor/personnel as well as any maintenance workers accessing the crane.
